My all time favorite tv show. There will never be a comedy show like this ever.
Don't forget based on English series Man about the house

I wish they'd put Three's Company on streaming. Was one of my favourite shows as a kid.
its in syndication on oldie tv stations all the time, i don't think a day has passed in my life that it isn't on somehwere, every minute of the day
It would be perfect for Netflix or Amazon Prime
All episodes are on Pluto Tv. Live streaming and On Demand.
Great show.. Before producers had a robotic sitcom agenda
@@CathyBill thats true but what sucks is that Pluto cut out some of the funniest moments in the show. Even though the show is funny from start to finish they threw out the especially funny parts!!! I'm so thankful I bought the whole set on DVD because that's where they're all unedited and raw and even include the chasers at the end which were edited for commercial time on TV!
This show was lightning in a bottle. So much great talent.
john ritter the straw that stirs the drink on three's company
@@ricardolozano5356 RIP John and Don.
Lordy, I'm having flash-backs going back nearly 50 yrs. The commercials were also great to see! Thanks for posting this..
Lordy Lordy Lordy as Jack says
What a... fascinating example of a TV show rerun overrun. Bill Rice should've gotten a raise for that.
Lol, I don't think the networks today would bother. They just JIP and let the viewer figure it out.
@@GFI888 no, they wouldn't. haha Thank God for the streaming sites.
Yeah, I thought that was really something special! I don't think I've ever seen that done for any other show where they had to join it "already in progress". I think it was done excellently, kinda with a fun, tongue-in-cheek edge.
This is a great show. No cell phones, no cars, no stress
I love the nostalgic commercials!! I remember some of these!!
I love the old commercials. Brings back memories.
Omg you have the old commercials in this too!
Now it really takes me back to the days I was plopped on my pillow in front of the giant tube television watching this.
Thanks!!!
I was born 89 I started watching this great show in 2000 but how great to see 80's commercials is 2022 imagine when I'm 70 I'll be looking back at 2005 shows on youtube with the commercials an say I was actually there live 😂 it mames me sad 😔 those years are gone an never coming back enjoy kids you only get one life
Born in 1989??! Wow! 😲😲😳😳 I really feel old....born in 1970 here. I was 7 yrs old when this show started in 1977, but wasn't allowed to watch it 'til 1980. My dad said it wasn't appropriate for lil kids.....Gee, I wonder why??! This & LHOTP were my 2 fav shows!! John Ritter was a LeGEnD! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
John Ritter is a LEGEND
I agree Arnold
I was sad to see he passed away so young
I like how there was a full spoiler of the episode before they played the episode hahah
Regan interrupted the start of the show
The President's speech cut off the beginning of the episode.
It's so neat you put up the original network broadcast. Loved hearing the announcer fill everyone in on the plot.
WOW! What a treasure! This is one of my favorite episodes! It’s amazing an 80’s broadcast of this classic! It’s like I’m right there! Thank you!
After all these years and countless times watching these episodes makes me laugh and smile everytime like it was the first time watching
At 7:56 the blonde in the panty hose commercial is Ilene Graff who would guest star in an episode of Three's Company and later played the mom on Mr. Belvedere.
Another classic show Mr belvedere👍
Is she related to Jessie Graff?
Oh man, this upload has it ALL.
One of the all-time great Three's Company episodes for starters... but as a bonus, we also get
- The wonderfully elaborate Bill Rice 'story so far' reading
- ERNIE ANDERSON (I've never wanted to see the Democratic reply to the President's address more - he could sell anything)
- Donny and Marie in that Hawaiian Punch ad
- A couple seconds of the Vega$ theme
This RULES.
Bill should've been picked to announce for 2-part episodes, starting with "Previously on Three's Company..."
I love the COMMERCIALS
[Denice] Oh, Jock. You must think I am just a big baby, huh?
[Jack] Neeooo!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Love threes company my child hood memories an commercials brought back so many memories ty
This is why live announcers are important.
Just wait, they're working on AI everything. No more live announcers, no live anything. They'll have the news delivered by that insipid TikTok manipulated woman's voice, the one with the vocal fry exceeding way beyond 11.
Loved the show as well as the old commercials. Thanx
John Ritter was an icon still sad to this day that he's gone
Been 20 something years already since his passing.
Why is she going downstairs to go up to Larry's apartment?
Definitely nostalgic, takes me way back in the days when I was just a kid!💗
No one could do slapstick comedy better than John ritter😂
I love this post of Three's Company. Thank you. Please post more episodes and leave the commercials it is great memories of when I was a teenager. Three's Company is the absolute best!!!
🚪Aptmnt 201
Love this episode. Season 4 was one of my faves of Three's Company.
I remember Formula 44D!
I'm not a day over October. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Mr Furley cracked me up.
one of my fav episodes lol. thanks for the upload! 💕
THANK YOU 🙏🏻 for uploading this priceless gem ❤
What a cozy treasure!!! Thank you!✨🥰✨
Perfect way to describe this show!!!
This was the first episode of S5 and the second to last full episode Suzanne Somers did before she was fired.
It was handled very badly.
She's great in this episode ...and she left a body of work that nobody can take away.
@@user-so9qk1nf4t her final ep the one with the $100 a night hooker was one of my favorites and I thought Joyce DeWitt was especially pretty in that show
Larry had COVID !
I felt so sorry for Jack by the end of the episode. LOL
You and me both. The man tried his best.
He had it coming. 🤣🤣🤣
@Veronica A. That's true. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You should have seen the night the ABC announcer on duty gave a lengthy recap to an episode of "The Fall Guy" joined in twenty minutes in progress after a presential speech.
Are you thinking of this clip?
ruclips.net/video/Dk6KLs0VmCE/видео.html
Going on 19 years since John passed. Born and died in the same month and same hospital. I miss you, John.
He was only 54. 😢 1948-2003
@@user-so9qk1nf4t Yea, once you are older than that you realize 54 is relatively young.
of all of the building I love mr.furly.
awesome upload with the original commercials i feel like i'm 13 again. and vega$ at the end it would be awesome to watch that upload of vega$
Also miss Don Norman Audra and Ann wedge worth lana
Lana was my favorite! Even over all the beautiful women Jack dated, she was the best one of all and only came in on the last season.
This episode was INSANE 🤣🤣🤣
I don't ever remember voice work intros this elaborate (usually they just said "We now join Three's Company already in progress". What interrupted this telecast a Presidential speech??
Already in progress? Wow!
Apparently the commercials and episode description is more important than the show itself
Thanks for uploading! Great episode and it even has the commercials to boot!
Memory lane !
Thank you
Boy, thank God the announcer explained the entire episode before we even got to have a look at it.
never mind I watch it again and I seen him bring them up with the salad sorry about My other comet.
Thank you Thank you Thank you 😃
Nice of the announcer to spoil the whole episode before it even began.
By Bill Rice 🪦
I love the show, great comedic writing brought to life be a talented cast.
Upload more episodes of "Three's Company" please?
Hahaha did they really explain the so up front?????
The Toyota Starlet getting 54mpg !!! Wow..!
This must be a rerun, because Chrissy was already off the show by 1981.
Brings back a lot of memories! Great feeling!
A brilliant show, that broke barriers for TV:
-Guys & girls living together.
-Openly talking about gay roommate.
(What a change, from the very conservative comedies of the 1960s.)
the 3:30pm Movie, on WLS TV Chicago. now that's going WAY BACK
The 3:30 movie is where I first saw Planet of the Apes TV show, they would splice the episodes together to make it like a movie, and the 1974 fake Wonder Woman movie was always shown for some reason.
@@JENDALL714 KOOL TIMES THOUGH!!!
@@mysticakhenaton1701 It was Good Times, ain't lucky we got 'em!
Loved the show
Whaddya mean, "non-narcotic cough suppressant?" Do you mean to tell me that they kept narcotics in cough suppressants throught the 70s?
YES. people got addicted to cough meds
My favourite shown🎉🎉🎉🎉
The Toyota Starlet was my first car 🤣🤣
I LOVE OLD SCHOOL TV AND COMMERCIALS......IM JOINING THIS CHANNEL.....HOPE YOU GOT BJ AND THE BEAR/BARETTA/TRAPPER JOHN MD ALSO.....
Grape Nuts man scary 😳
20:37 jack runs in gets caught. Love it
Back when they use to have Central and Mountain.
You know, I think they should reboot the show. Just the basic concept of an overbearing landlord and a possible love triangle of misunderstandings was great.
The way he says "No" to the French cutie is beyond funny!
Wow,
Suzanne and John are gone. Now it’s just Joyce. Suzanne passed away earlier today (October 15th), one day before her 77th birthday (October 16th).
I don't remember Jack bringing the lamb chops upstairs when did he do it?? .
Rip John Ritter.
Thanks
Looking for the episode where they went a nude beach.
did he really have to give the entire plot away?
He only summarized what had happened already in the episode. He was getting people caught up - not spoiling.
So according to tv guide east coast edition for this night. It was 8pm-9 Guinness book of worlds records. 9pm-9:30 this episode of Three's company. 930-11;00 it says The Carter Reagan Debate. That if course is eastern time. Wonder how Chicago (being only an hour off) had it so different. Adding Vegas at the end seemed more like a west coast move because the debate had been so early.
Carter / Reagan debate? I think you’re looking at the original airdate for this episode of Three’s Company - this was a re-run.
This episode is one of the classic ones especially the end where they really let jack have it 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
One of the
Best of all
Time⚡
@8:00, I never knew that was Ilene Graff
I think the show is on free TV. Don’t remember if it’s on MeTV or Decades but it’s on one of those.
It's currently on either antenna tv or the Sundance channel.
It's on pluto tv 😊
❤ this show forever apartment 201 🚪 🎉BEST SITCOM EVER!!!
This was a lovely show.
I dont understand how it is 'complete' with the beginning missing.
'Complete' as in this was how the episode was (re)broadcast', while the episode itself is indeed incomplete, i guess.
Sounds like you answered your own question - but yes, it says “Complete **Broadcast**” not complete episode, which is exactly what it is - the complete airing of Three’s Company that night, as broadcast. They used an announcer summary for the missing opening three minutes - if it was good enough for ABC to broadcast that night then it’s good enough for us to display here.
not only that, there were commercials in it too, but they weren't cut.
At least the part they did show was unedited. So many reruns of the show today are edited with some of the best scenes missing.
Grape-nuts ! Yummy !
My favorite episode...It was done in one complete take...
Rest In Peace John Ritter 1948-2003 and Don Knotts 1924-2006 and Suzanne Somers 1946-2023
That intro was strange. I watched all of these shows live back then and I don't remember a network narrator ever summarizing the plot of a sitcom.
Me, neither!! What was that? Maybe they only had it in certain states? 🤔
Ronald Reagan wasn't preside until Jan. 1981
Yeah - and your point is?
That's why it's called a debate, lol
RIP Suzanne Somers
I've noticed in several interviews that Suzanne Somers has done she always mentions about her and John Ritter's on screen chemistry together, which was great, I agree. But when she mentions this, it's just her and John. She never really mentions Joyce DeWitt. In my opinion, all three of them had good on screen together and they were all the stars equally of the show, contrary to what Suzanne said when she was on Dancing With The Stars, "the star of Three's Company". Suzanne also said in one interview that before John died, she made amends with him and discussed with him about doing a project together, herself and John. What about Joyce? She should have been included in the supposed project as well.
I can’t explain her comment on DWTS but when suzanne made amends with john she and joyce were not speaking at the time
7:57 - Janet and Chrissy stunt doubles?
This show was not the same after Chrissy left. Rest in peace John Ritter & Don Knotts
Rip. Tripper for life!!
R.I.P. Suzanne Somers😢
Aw sweet nostalgia…
Request: ABC's Silver Anniversary Celebration
Bless Suzanne Somers🌸 Bless John Ritter too. He was really a handsome guy & great actor. Suzanne was such an adorable 'Chrissy.'. This is truly the vibes of late 70's ~ happy time ~ Santa Monica was so safe ~ apartment life was great ~ parties ~ everybody shared costs ~ everybody worked hard ~ everybody partied hard ~ very best of times 🎉🛋️
Baloney . They had all the same problems we have today. Strokes , disability, poverty , broken families, cheaters, frauds, missing persons, violence , Vietnam vets with terrible trauma, and much much more. 😢
talk about breaking news
Four, four dates? At the same time? Jack Tripper was a total playa. That's completely insane, just like Jeremy Usbourne ordering 4 naan on Peep Show.
This was Feb.1981; Reagan ha d just been inaugurated as President .
17:30 The precursor to Steamed Hams 😲 ...Steamed Lambs.
As a teenager I crushed on all the girls in this show but Denise was so sexy to me. Jack the playa’s playa!
